Prebiotic and Probiotic Influence on Beef Calves Immunity
Description
Statistical trends existed for differences in IgG levels between treatment groups. Despite the trends, all IgG were in a physiologically normal range. When comparing the combination of prebiotic and probiotic to the other additives, as seen in Table 1, Figures 3, and 4 the control ration provided a higher IgG concentration. Future experiments should include additional replications. It is possible that the expected outcome was not achieved due to influence affiliated with calf age, vaccination history, and environmental effects.
